I hope he just leaves Wakefield. There are tons of other surrounding towns that would support him. I understand why he likes his spot, but I'm sure there is another where petty laws won't get in this way.

For the passed plates (I get everything that comes by but..):If you see the tuna tartare get that it was slightly spicy and fantastic. The chicken is good if this is your first time you should at least try it.And the deviled eggs, oh my god yes get those.

For a cocktail I like the Admiral Nelson.

Pictures are of octopus, lamb and deviled eggs. I've got plenty more if anyone wants them.

I like the remodel. I always thought Summer Winter was so-so. The new design is much nicer particularly the lounge. I've just eaten there once: I thought the steak was very good ad the bread is awesome. On the other hand the shrimp cocktail is served in a martini glass already filled with cocktail sauce and a ridiculous amount of lettuce. The blueberry cobbler was dry and bready. I would never get it again. Most importantly the dining room still smells like a swimming pool.

I've never had more than a bite of the frozen yogurt. I get the banana pudding topping by itself for just two bucks. I really like it. It's tiny but usually I'm so full it's all I need. I haven't tried the donuts yet. One of these times I will save room.

I'm voting Sarma on this one. I'm one of those people who thinks it is even better than Oleana. The food there just has so much flavor and the "mysterious" specials make for a fun night. I order one dish at a time so that I get exposed to as many passed dishes as possible. My strongest suggestion is to talk to Christian (he is one of the main special deliverers) and tell him not to miss you. He is super friendly and as long as you don't say no too much, he will make sure he gets to you before he runs out.

We are not a very good wing town. When I lived in Chicago there were 100 places that had great wings. I mostly make my own at home now because when I got out I'm usually disappointed. I do like Wing-It because their wings are pretty crispy, but it's more nostalgia from college days eating tons of them. I also like Ma Magoos in Fresh Pond, but I always get their tenders not wings. Those are probably the only places I go back to for wings at this point.

My perfect wing is on the smaller side and very crispy. Never breaded, that just ruins them for me. Sauce should be hot but not lose all taste hot. I have had some ok wings on accident before but nothing great around here. I just buy a bunch of naked wings at Whole Foods and make my own sauce. Keeps me happy.

I have zero knowledge about this topic so I am admittedly talking out of my a$$, but it is entirely possible that it is both labor intensive and lucrative for management. Not saying that this is the case with ICOB, but I'm sure somewhere someone in in oysters for the money. That said I find charging 3-4 for one shrimp more troublesome than oyster prices.

Yes that was on a beef burger. There were three burgers that night. The Tavern Road kitchen made a lamb burger with smoked feta. My favorite though was the bartender burger which had duck bacon and spicy tomato jam. The jam was actually sweet and gave it that nice savory-sweet blend. Absolutely incredible burger.

They haven't worked out the details for the June one just yet, but it looks like it will be at Commonwealth and probably on a Sunday instead of Tuesday this time.

Tavern Road is hosting the Super Burger Bros popup on Tuesday night. I've never been to TR before and I don't know how much of an impression about their regular menu Tuesday will provide. Their bar team and kitchen team are each adding a burger to the menu in case anyone is interested.

There is so much hate for Bondir Concord on CH. I don't get it. How is it over-priced? You can get half portions which are plenty big for $15-18. Wine is reasonably priced. You could easily have a filling weekday dinner for $28 + TT. You want something bigger you can easily get away with a big meal at $75 pp. I have never seen a diner talking on their phone ever. I have only had one bad server and I don't see her in there anymore. The food is his style. If you don't like it fine but then I hope you didn't like Bondir Cambridge either.

I know every restaurant has a slip up now and then. I think what is important is the ability to respond well to concern and they certainly did that. Because of how they handled things, I will be back soon.
